Uniform share new video for “The Shadow of God’s Hand”

Uniform have shared another new video from their great 2020 album, Shame. The new clip, directed by John Bradburn, is a dark and intense video that follows the song’s themes of faith and redemption.

The group’s Michael Berdan says in a press release, “The central theme behind ‘The Shadow of God’s Hand’ are the inherent contradictions present in conventional Christianity. I was brought up with this idea of ‘act right or you’re going to hell.’ I’ve listened to family members as they worried themselves to tears over the fate of a loved one’s soul. To me, the concept of a punitive God is antithetical to the comfort I derive from a spiritual practice. Does God serve to comfort or chastise? Does following Christ’s teachings serve to create a kinder, more equitable world or have those teachings become so perverted that they simply stand as tools of control? For many, there is a fine line in their belief structure between salvation and damnation. This song attempts to touch on these paradoxes.”
